Renesmee came bounding in, a big smile on her face.

"Mom! I had a really nice dream about me, you and Dad!" Everyone looked up, interested.

"Really, would you like to show me?" I asked. I loved seeing Renesmee's dreams, as I can't dream anymore. She pressed her warm palm to my cheek. Images of our faces flashed up, we were all hunting together. She had caught her first grizzly bear, Emmett's favourite. She told me in her thoughts about how she wanted to be able to catch one someday, and maybe Emmett could be the one to give her tips.

"Yes, maybe someday Emmett will do that." I giggled. Emmett's head shot up.

"What will I do?" he boomed.

"Teach me how to hunt grizzlies!" Renesmee squealed. Emmett's face lit up.

"Well, it's the weekend, so why not start now?" he said enthusiastically. I glanced at Edward, he gave a nod of approval.

"Yeah, go ahead." I sighed. Renesmee squealed as Emmett shot out of the door and raced her to the forest. Charlie was visiting today, so I went into the kitchen and raided the cupboard to fix him something to eat. I eventually found the ingredients to spaghetti bolognese by tracking the scents. I tipped the minced beef into the pan, grinding it up so it broke down. The aroma that came from the cooking meat would normally make any human's stomach rumble, but to me it wasn't pleasant despite the traces of blood in the meat. I tipped the sauce onto the meat once it had cooked, then poured some boiling water into another saucepan for the pasta. I tipped a small portion of it in and waited. I heard a loud knock on the door. I raced there at vampire speed, and opened it warily. The wind blew his scent in, but I hunted earlier this morning so I was fine.

"Hey Charlie." I cheered.

"Hi Bella." he grumbled whilst examining my clothes.

"Did Alice get to you again? She sure does love clothes, the ones she's chosen look great on you." he muttered. I heard Alice giggle from upstairs, not audible to Charlie's ears. I heard the timer go for the spaghetti.

"You're dinner's ready, just sit on the sofa and I'll bring you a tray."

"Okay." he replied. I served up his dinner, and put it on a tray. I brought it in and set it on Charlie's lap. He looked at it warily, as if I was trying to poison him. Everyone felt awkward, Charlie was especially ever since he learnt there were things he didn't know about in the world. And how it involved us. When he was happy, he tucked in. I heard a shriek from upstairs, it was Alice. All of us vampires' eyes widened. Especially Edward, he knew what Alice was thinking.

"Everyone upstairs. Now." Carlisle ordered. Charlie looked up from his dinner anxiously.

"Oh, it's nothing Charlie, just family business." Carlisle said, hoping to reassure him. Charlie nodded, and went back to his meal. Renesmee and Emmett came through the door. Renesmee ran over Charlie and kissed his cheek. Charlie smiled.

"Renesmee, you stay down and keep Charlie company. Emmett, we are having a family discussion upstairs." Carlisle repeated. Emmett nodded, raising his eyebrows. Edward took my hand, and led me upstairs. Alice was still frozen, her face shocked.

"Alice, what is it?" I asked, worried. Alice turned to me, still holding her facial expression.

"The Volturi." she gasped.

I was rifling through my clothes when I saw it. Clear as anything. I saw the dark billowing cloaks. I shrieked. Everything went quiet downstairs. What did they want? We'd told them what Renesmee really was, we'd declined their offers inviting us to join them by the throne. I heard conversation downstairs. Carlisle wanted a family discussion. I stood frozen, I couldn't move. I heard quick footsteps up the stairs. Everyone came in, worried about what I'd just seen.

"Alice, what is it?" Bella asked. I turned to her, my face still not moving until I spoke.

"The Volturi." I gasped.
